Bad Day

So....
Yeah....
Today wasn't the best.  Went to the doctor about my foot.  Nothing major.  I got a cortisone shot in my foot, it wasn't pleasant.  It is feeling better now. 

Anyways, I joined Women Can Run Monday.  I'm pretty excited about it.  I am really doing good with running and I'm proud of myself.  Maybe once I get this foot taken care of it will all be better.

I made a kick butt recipe tonight.  I had asked Mama Laughlin for a "skinny" sweet recipe for potluck tomorrow via Keek (awesome app, you make a 36 second video and upload it).  She gave me a suggestion to look at her blog (link above) for Cheesecake Sopapillas.  OMG They are AMAZING!!  So simple. 

2 cans of reduced fat Crescent Roles
2 packages of reduced fat Cream Cheese (8 oz)
1 cup of Splenda
1/2 cup cinnamon/splenda mix (I used mostly sugar more than 1/4 cup)
1 stuck unsalted butter.
2 teaspoons vanilla 

Take one can of rolls and put in a 9 by 13 greased pan, spread out.

Mix cream cheese, sugar and vanilla.  Spread the mixture over the rolls.

Put the other can of rolls on top. 

Melt the butter and pour over the top

Sprinkle the cinnamon/sugar mix over the butter.

Bake at 350 for 40 minutes. 

Eat when they are warm and it's like a party in your mouth.  I may have had more than one serving, but I also skipped dinner so whatever.

Really, you need to try it.  And you also need to check out Mama Laughlin's blog.

Jeans

No matter how stores try to candy coat it, there is a certain stigma around the plus size section of stores.  They can call it curvy or misses or whatever, but we all know what it is.  There is an imaginary line in the middle of the store where no one wants to cross.  At least that's how I feel about it.  I'm sure the girls on the "regular" side could careless, or the workers for that matter, but I always feel self conscious when shopping on the side of the store.  Sure, you get used to it and laugh when you're with your skinny friends and say "I'll be over on the big girl side" and saunter on your way to the plus size section.  While you began to search through the racks on your side, you secretly long to be on the other side of the store, where there is double, sometimes triple the selection of clothes.  You find something, take it back to the dressing room to try it on.  It doesn't look right, it's too tight, it's not what you thought ...

Transformation Tuesday

Good Tuesday Morning to you all! I am up bright and early to go to a workshop today.  It was hard to get up, which is funny because I get up early every other day. Anyways, this blog isn't about my workshop, it's about Transformation Tuesday.... I literally just read a quote on facebook while I was looking for a picture to use, that sums up transformation:  Transformation is not easy. It starts on the inside before you see it on the outside. There are struggles. It comes with pain. It comes with a lot of hard work and effort. Without going through the tough stuff you aren't able to enjoy true transformation. Don't be discouraged but the rough days. Greater things are on the other side! ♥   That's the honest truth.  Transformation isn't easy, but it is the most enjoyable thing I have experienced.  And the thing about transforming your body, you also transform your mind.  Everything changes.   This is me.  This is me before...

What I Want You To Understand

I posted the following picture on Facebook and Instagram last night. I posted the following caption with it:  I wish I could explain how it feels to look at these pictures. I'm sure I should feel proud, but I feel disgusted. I remember being that girl. I remember how I felt.... Miserable. Look at that stomach. That isn't normal. That's not how a woman is supposed to look. I am disappointed in myself that I did that to myself. I am also disgusted that I've come so far and I've been slacking. I hate it. And I hate what I've done. Turning around again. ‪#‎ progress‬ ‪#‎ motivation‬ ‪#‎ fightingtheinnerfatgirl‬ My Instagram friends took this post for what it was worth, leaving comments such as "We all fall down and get back up" and "I understand how you feel,I've been slacking too".  My Facebook friends, however, just kept telling me how I was beautiful before and now and that beauty is not defined by a size and not to be to ...
